Aye, finally hit our sofa after herding kids and putting the gear away.

Fab weekend, fab company, SUNBURN :blink:

AND a few piccies, which I will share when I sift through the rubbish ones! :photo:

Thanks for another great Annual Meet. Some were missed, and I do hope you can come next year instead :thumbsup:

That's me home safe. It peed it down for the first 80 Miles was dry the rest of the way apart from when I stopped for fuel at Annadale services so I let it pass before setting off again. My heated grips have packed in and I managed to burst the zip on my jacket but apart from that everything is ok.

Had a great weekend and enjoyed everyone's company. Can't wait until next year although we could always do one later in the year. :nod:

Oh and my speedo not working seems to have messed up the carburation... Apparently i did 10.8 miles to east kirkby and back but it took 4 tank fulls of juice... I think i had better sort the speedo out or next years mot is going to be really embarrassing on the miles covered!!

I is home too. Wet, cold and pruny :? 220 miles and only the last 5 were dry :blink: Anyway, wet socks in the wash, wet gloves on the rad, couple of smokes and I'm off for a shower while the boy sorts out a takeaway for dinner. Lucky me :D Many thanks you complete bunch of loons, was lovely to catch up with you all again - and to meet some new loons. Had a great weekend and looking forward to the next one xx

Norrie had been hiding his face in his hat prior to this, and I was cheeky in making him think I'd turned the camera off :D

I'd like to thank everyone who attended our event on Monday, come rain or shine you guys (and girls) help to make this event something very special.

Out of a total of 290 there were approximately 120 Italian motorcycles present.

We raised £600.00 on the gate for Emma's Charity, the Papworth Hospital Cystic Fibrosis Unit. This will take the total we've raised since Emma passed away in April 2004 to over £45,000.00.
